If you are on 10.5 or greater, then, if you have iChat (dot mac or AIM) then we're already ready, there is nothing more to do than login to iChat and start chatting with me. If you do NOT have iChat, then skip down to the iChat section (you can use my iChat server).
If you are on 10.4, then in order for me to be able to look in on your computer, you'll need to login to my VPN, and you'll also need to enable "Apple Remote Desktop". If you want to iChat we'll need to cover that too.
